Amelie (2001)

Date watched: Friday 28th February 2014



Kam:
What a nice little film from the director of the previously reviewed Alien Resurrection. You can definitely see the similarities in the quirkiness of each film, quirkiness which is put to much better use in this light-hearted comedy rather than something that has its origins as a horror film in space.

It’s funny and heart-warming but I must admit if this was an English language film I would probably dismiss it as cheesy and sanguine. Maybe I’m willing to look past that as I have some strange notion of foreign language films being crazy because foreigners are just plain mad… or maybe it’s because Audrey Tautou is just lovely…


In a nutshell- Tres Bien


Hannah:

I found that i spent the majority of the film thinking 'her eyes are massive', so the storyline didn't seem very important.
If it wasn't for subtitles I really wouldn't have paid much attention to the screen, it's all a bit too silly and I refuse to believe anyone is that naïve.

Meh
